About twenty-five people gathered at this year’s rally and aside from one person yelling out his car window that we were all going to Hell and then wishing us a Merry Christmas, there wasn’t any negative reactions this year. There were quite a few honks in support from passersby and a few people who were walking by stayed to listen to a speech or two.

Several supporters spoke about the books they had chosen for the Human Tree of Knowledge and to give their support for the Tree of Knowledge display in general. After the Human Tree of Knowledge was formed… the group sang songs and socialized before heading out as a group to a nearby restaurant for dinner.
